Jinzhou is extremely quiet in the early morning. The occasional chirping of birds is particularly loud, and the soldiers on duty at the city gate are also dozing.
"Da da da da da da..." The sound of horse hoofs woke up the soldiers on duty at the city gate. The soldiers opened their hazy eyes and were still cursing in a low voice, but when they looked into the distance, they only saw a
The cavalry approached from far away, and they were about to make a move, but they only saw two red military flags behind the cavalry, and they quickly stepped aside.
When an order is sent to the army, if there is an emergency, no one will be held responsible for the stampede. When reporting to the army, one station is an emergency, two stations are an emergency, and three stations are an emergency. Anyone who obstructs them will be killed without mercy, and the nine tribes will be punished.
The soldiers at the city gate knew this situation and quickly moved away, but they were muttering in their hearts: Could it be that the front line has lost another battle...
Since decades ago, there have been constant wars in Northern Xinjiang. In the past, there were fewer victories and more defeats, but at least there were one or two decent victories.
However, in the past ten years, the war in Northern Xinjiang has been many things unsatisfactory. They have been defeated one after another and there has been no decent victory at all. The Hu people outside Northern Xinjiang have been exploring for many years and have become more and more adept at attacking tough battles. The war has become increasingly difficult.
The general families formed in the border areas constantly competed with the imperial court and focused their energy on internal fighting. The border troops no longer had the courage to fight with the barbarians in the field. With the increase in defeats, many soldiers, including generals, have suffered from "phobia of barbarians".
Therefore, we can only tighten the defense line and rely on solid cities to stop the barbarians' crazy attacks.
As a second-tier city in northern Xinjiang, Jinzhou has never had any wars. No matter how many battles are lost on the front line, it will not be affected. But this ride from the north broke all this tranquility.
"Da da da da da da..." The sound of horse hooves continued towards the city's Yamen, waking up countless people from their dreams along the way.
When a horse came from the north, the news it brought was a bolt from the blue: the front line was defeated, the first line of defense was destroyed, a gap was opened in the original defense system, Guzhou fell, and although Guzhou had been recaptured, there were already five thousand barbarians.
The men and cavalry infiltrated the inside line.
This cavalry also brought orders from the front line. Since the front line troops were insufficient, the three thousand frontier troops stationed near Jinzhou all headed north and set off immediately.
Suddenly Jinzhou became in danger. After the three thousand border troops moved north, only one thousand city defense troops were left.
The three thousand border troops stationed in Jinzhou have not moved for three or four years. There must be too much movement now, and the news cannot be hidden at all.
The news that the barbarians have penetrated into the inner circle and are likely to loot Jinzhou has spread. People in Jinzhou City are shaking, and residents outside Jinzhou have rushed to Jinzhou City with their old and young. In the eyes of the simple people,
Come, Jinzhou's tall city walls give you a sense of security, and it's even safer to stay in the city.
After receiving the news, Yu Wenfeng did not dare to delay, and hurriedly led everyone to Jinzhou City. After all, with his current strength, he was still unable to fight against the Hu people's cavalry, and the best way to save his life was to save his life.
Yu Wenfeng was still sitting on the carriage, Zheng Kang was driving the carriage, and Niu Er was riding beside Yu Wenfeng's carriage, followed by another carriage, but it was Niu Er's family. The other fifty hungry wolves were following behind.
.
Along the way, it felt like the end of the world. The people were driving bullock carts, carrying large and small bags, and could not bear to leave anything behind. Noises and curses came and went. Of course, there were some who were unwilling to leave. You can imagine their fate.
.
The road was not peaceful. Some people took advantage of the chaos and committed mischief. The gangsters in the village usually became more courageous. The ugly side of human nature was fully exposed. Of course, there were also some people who were short-sighted and tried to attract the attention of Yu Wenfeng and his group. As a result, they were directly killed.
die.
In order to avoid trouble and speed up the process, Yu Wenfeng fortunately ordered everyone to equip themselves with weapons. Anyone who was not quick-sighted would be killed directly. This saved a lot of trouble.
Finally we saw the city wall of Jinzhou, but the situation was not optimistic.
There were many people surrounding the city gate, but the city gate was closed tightly. The people were allowed to shout loudly below.
After a while, Yu Wenfeng and his party came to the city gate. Hearing the noise, Yu Wenfeng also opened the car door and walked out, but saw a chaos. At this time, a voice was heard above the city gate, "Everyone is here."
Go back, Jinzhou can’t accommodate so many people. Hu people won’t come, it’s all rumors.”
After hearing this, Yu Wenfeng raised his head and looked up. He could only roughly see that the person speaking was a man in military uniform, and there was a young man in red official robe standing next to him. But it seemed that the man in military uniform had finished speaking.
Afterwards, the young official came forward to argue with him.
When the people heard this sentence, they immediately exploded. Not letting people enter the city was not to kill people. As for what they just said, no one wanted to believe it. Although Jinzhou has not suffered from war, it is also a second-tier city in northern Xinjiang. For
We also know how ferocious the barbarians in the north are.
When the men in uniform on the city wall saw this, they shouted: "Are you going to be a mob? Archers, archers..." Many soldiers holding bows and arrows appeared on the city wall.
Yu Wenfeng's brows had not loosened since he got out of the carriage. At this time, as if he had made up his mind, he said to He Song: "Shoot the man in uniform who spoke." After hearing this, He Song took off the gun without saying a word.
With the long bow on his back, the arrows shot out with a "swish" sound.
Before the man in military uniform finished speaking, he screamed and fell down.
The whole world fell silent. Whether it was the soldiers on the city wall, the young man in the red official robe, or the people under the city wall, they all stared in the direction of Yu Wenfeng and his party in stunned silence.
At this time, Yu Wenfeng stood on the carriage and said loudly: "I am the grandson of Yu Wen Ao, the Minister of War, who dares to stop me from entering the city..." This big signboard of the Yuwen family is quite effective.
.
The closed city gate finally opened, Yu Wenfeng took the lead to enter, and the people under the city wall swarmed up...dd
